Black Flag Lyrics - Singles - Takoma Bridge

My dear! 

Three years away from home 

(I) don't know 

where the hell are our souls. 

Your face 

has faded like sea foam. 

Pain, vices and fears 

have plundered my hope. 

Mead and rum 

await me at every port. 

Dark taverns, 

wenches and drinking songs. 

Dawns break, 

and it's hard to cast off 

while half of the crew 

throws up overboard. 

Look north 

there comes a thunderstorm. 

Look south 

there comes a pirate boat. 

War time! 

Morrigan draws her sword 

Destroy their black flag 

with fire and blood. 

Black flag! 

Dark clouds and lightning over the seas. 

Amid the huge waves, a black flag appears, 

sailing to nowhere, our druid goes blind. 

Our fortune, our fate, are now left behind. 

After this battle, we will be free, 

so grab your bottle and take one last swig. 

Tonight, six new stars will shine in the sky. 

Never forgive them, it's time to fight. 

Now, walking the plank, I think back. 

I realise what's my real home. 

Black Flag! 

Dark clouds and lightning over the seas. 

Amid the huge waves, a black flag appears, 

sailing to nowhere, our druid goes blind. 

Our fortune, our fate, are now left behind. 

After this battle, we will be free, 

so grab your bottle and take one last swig. 

Tonight, six new stars will shine in the sky. 

Never forgive them, it's time to fight.
